Trifexis Day

Okay, admittedly this is not an official holiday (and many of them aren't), but the first day of the month is the day the dogs get their heart worm preventative. For the first two years I gave it to them, it was a nightmare. It smells bad and they hated it. So I used a mortar and pestle to ground it up, then mixed it with all kinds of people food. Simon did a pretty good job, but Glory was 50/50. And then I discovered coconut oil, the magic elixir! I can put it over anything I give them and they gobble it right up. And there are added benefits for their skin and many other things. Bingo! So if you have a dog who doesn't like to take pills, I recommend coconut oil... one of my new favorite things.
